They say that it is a Jaguar, I guess it is a "S.S. something-Jaguar" then? |

Absolutely not; this never saw the inside of a Jaguar factory. It's a replica, and not a very good one. |

And remember folks, never, ever, lie under anything that's only supported by a hydraulic jack. (Even if it's a bad taste piece of junk that's trying to be something it isn't). |

Looks a bit like this "Draco" (they probably chose that name because this car is a monstrosity...) though I can't find anything under that name on Google: http://www.oldtimer-classiccars.eu/new/1939_jaguar_ss100_replica.htm Or maybe this untitled monster? http://www.jlrclassics.com/car/jaguar-ss100-replica/ -- Last edit: 2016-03-23 21:55:05 |

The link to the 'Draco' mentions it starting life as a 'Classic Roadsters Duke' which returns a few more links including a Jalopnik article: http://jalopnik.com/5849226/for-18995-duke-it-out It looks like a decent match (the arrangement of the lights, bumpers, wings all match the car here. It also has the same ugly glovebox lid though here a bit more effort has been made with the interior with a more attractive steering wheel and gauges). |

Classic Roadsters Ltd., Inc. of Fargo, North Dakota, offered the Duke from 1982 as either "factory complete" or "unassembled" (= kit car, assembly manual at $ 15,-) and it was modeled after a 1939 Jaguar SS 100 - their words, not mine. |
